Orcs Must Die Unchained Phase 2!

Orcs Must Die Unchained is moving into phase 2 of the beta. As such Patch notes are up for people to pour over and digest.

The notes themselves are prefaced with a very clear and concise, Good, Bad and Ugly notes section to get the major talking points out of the way.

So without further ado.

The Good: New traps. Bosses have been added. An entirely new weaver model. Finally Hero abilities have been reworked adding in trait builds.

The Bad: Tournaments and other support structures like chat or game finders are still being worked on. This particular release focused on the core gameplay over ancilliary stuff.

The Ugly: It’s beta. There are things broken. No one should need to stress this, but just in case.

The full patch notes are available here for interested parties to peruse.

If you are still on the fence however regarding Orcs Must Die Unchained but are that type of player who must have all the fun things, be warned, the Founders packs are only going to be available for a few more days.

The Founders Packs contain exclusive skins and, depending on the pack you choose, various heroes and game codes for Orcs Must Die! 1 and 2, and the expansions. Early Founder/Beta packs also come with, as usual, in game currency to spend in the microtransaction store. So while Gameforge assures people that there will be other packs available in future, with other special content, the Founder’s badges and the exclusive skins will never be made available again.
